What liturgy do Coptic & Oriental Orthodox use?

[Yeznik]

The Armenians Badarak (Divine Liturgy) is close to Saint Basils'. Saint Gregory the Illuminator was close to Saint Basil so there is alot of influence from Basil in our Badarak (Divine Liturgy).

Hello Freak4JC,

The bible that you saw is in English, and, its the KJV complete.(its not missing books like the Protestant bible). We use the Badarak (Divine Liturgy) of Sourp Hovaness Voskiberan (Saint John Chrysostom).

I don't know if its would be called Enoch in Armenian. I will check it out. Is it listed in Greek as Enoch or under a different name. We refer to the ancient Armenian regarding the books of the bible, and since Armenian outdates the English naming convention the titles might be different. For example the Book of Acts is the English bible called Acts, in Armenian its called the works (Acts) of the Apostles.

Oh, I never thought of that.

John
There is no special dance in the Coptic Liturgy John. The Coptic Church uses the Liturgies of St Basil, St Gregory, and St Cyril. Can you describe that dance you're talking about, I might get to know what exactly you have in mind?
